Apparently, the countless photos of her expression of disgust weren't enough, so little North West recently took it upon herself to shut down the paparazzi, declaring, "I said no pictures!"
In a new video that's made its way to the Internet, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's daughter repeatedly tells the paps not to photograph her as someone continues to film her walking. As noted by Cosmopolitan, the 2-year-old was spotted on her way to ballet class on Wednesday (Oct. 28) with a woman who isn't Kardashian.

Back in 2013, Halle Berry and Jennifer Garner saw victory in their fight to protect the privacy of the children of public figures. In September of that year, California Gov. Jerry Brown signed Berry's paparazzi bill, Senate Bill 606, which put a limit on the paparazzi's ability to photograph stars' children with the use of harassing tactics.
"I started this fight with a great deal of hope and a bit of uncertainty so I cannot express my immense gratitude that Gov. Brown has recognized, and acted to remedy, the plight of children who are tormented because of the identity or prominence of their parents," Berry said when the bill became law.
As many may recall, North's father isn't very fond of the paparazzi either. Earlier this year, the “All Day” rapper settled a case in which he assaulted a pap at LAX in 2013. After two years of depositions, community service and other legal jousting, West was ordered to apologize to the plaintiff, Daniel Ramos. The assault reportedly took place after West flew into LAX and lashed out a photog who was goading him to try and say something on video.
The "Bound 2" rhymer has made his dislike of the paparazzi known on several occasions, even in his music.
"Til I got flashed by the paparazzi/Damn, these n***as got me/I hate these n***as more than a Nazi," he rapped on a track entitled "Flashing Lights" from his Graduation album.
As previously reported, Kanye West called for a celebrity civil rights movement against paparazzi during a deposition."I'm in the business of trying to make dope sh*t for the world. You're in the business of representing scums and trying to make as much money as long as there's this lapse in the law," he said to the Ramos' lawyer, Nate Goldberg.
The video of North has gained mixed reactions:
There's a sad irony in posting a video of North West asking to not have her picture taken. She's just a (really small) kid. — Jas Waters (@JasFly) October 28, 2015
North West telling the people taking photos of her " I said no pictures " has to be the most adorable thing ever — $kkylar (@AwkwardRiots_) October 28, 2015
I mean, North West is a little girl. I don't care if her parents are famous. Paps should not be hounding/following her.
